“god’s Ministry From The Sanctuary” Part 1 Series

Contributed by Mike Fogerson on Feb 13, 2015

The “Bottom Line” in our Christian walk is not how well we sing, preach, teach, serve but rather how soft our hearts are before the Lord.

Go Tell Your Neighbor

Contributed by Peter Pharis on Oct 24, 2014

Contributed by Shawn Miller on Jun 19, 2014

This sermon deals with how hearts are harden by pride and lack of conviction toward the gospel and as a result the gospel seed is stolen before it ever had a chance to germinate in our souls. Good in a series of the 4 soils in mark 4.

THE STOLEN SEED Mark 4:4 4:15 The Sower - Jesus and his ministers or preachers who deliver the word The Seed - the Word of God, the gospel, the Truth.

The Power To Choose

Contributed by Greg Nance on Jan 8, 2011

What place does choice play in our ultimate destiny? God chooses to let us choose.

. A Living Authority Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

It is Paul's goal to see that Christians put Jesus where He belongs, and that is in the place of supreme authority.

A Christian school teacher offered a dollar to the one who could give her the name of the most famous man in history. She wanted them to say Jesus, of course. They all began to shout out names like Washington, Lincoln, Edison, and Columbus, and finally a little Jewish boy said Jesus. When he came ...read more

Fighters For Peace Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

The peacemaker must take the same risks as the warmaker. It costs Jesus His life to be a peacemaker, and this is the price many have paid to bring peace between God and man, as well as between men.

One of the paradoxes of life is the fact that the peacemaker must be a fighter to be effective. Edwin Markham just before his death in 1940 remarked that his fondest hope had not been realized. He had wanted to write a poem that would dispense the armies of the world. Unfortunately, peace is ...read more

Preach For Free? Must Be Crazy!

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Feb 24, 2017

People say preachers are in it for the money, but if one comes just ready to preach for free they think you are nuts. Where's the win-win? ;-)

Ever since I have been saved, I have heard that "Preachers are only in it for the money." My first pastor was driving a twelve-year-old car, raising four kids on a salary that was equal to what my father-in-law was paying in weekly taxes. Admittedly, when you look at the lifestyles of ...read more

When God Messes With You Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on May 31, 2018

Does God mess with us, to help us grow? Joseph did not immediately reveal his identity to his brothers, and they grew through their struggles. Sometimes God refines his people through trials and hard choices.

The physical and mental demands on new recruits are intended to force them to confront their weaknesses, build their character, and learn ...read more
